In Belvedere we skim coat walls and ceilings to a flat, paint-ready surface, whether that is a full Level 5 finish before premium paint or flattening dated texture before a refresh.

Belvedere drywall in context

About Belvedere

Once part of the village of North Edmonton, Belvedere contains the Fort Road, which first thrived at a time when the trek between Fort Saskatchewan and Edmonton was made by wagon.

What we see in Belvedere

In Belvedere the drywall work is plaster and lath repair, popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, careful patching into original surfaces. We confirm what your home actually needs on site, in writing, before anything starts.

What affects the cost of skim coating in Belvedere?

Surface condition and finish level

The cost of skim coating in Belvedere comes down to the size of the area, the condition of the existing surface (a lightly textured wall takes fewer coats than one with heavy knockdown or old wallpaper glue), and the finish level — a true Level 5 for critical light is more skim work than knocking down a rough patch. We assess on site and give a fixed price before we start.

Texture to remove in Belvedere homes

The surfaces here are usually stipple ceilings and the occasional skim-over of dated texture, and flattening those to a smooth Level 5 is exactly the work we do. We tell you honestly whether a full skim or a spot resurface makes more sense for your Belvedere walls.
